Again, it’s "Eternal Immortal Vault"!
Li Yan’s face was solemn, and many things finally made sense.
Ma Santong, only his na is recorded in the "Eternal Immortal Vault," but Li Yan has already gathered intelligence on all seventy-two Demon Lords through several captures of demonic qi.
This entity was born from ancient enchanted spirits and mountain plague gas, often transforming into a red child, riding wind and sand, traveling the human world, and possessing people.
Compared to Yuan Zii, who passed down the "Devil Body Longevity Technique," and Ran Tong, who passed down the "Tongyou Longevity Technique," Ma Santong was sowhat weaker.
However, nearly every one of the seventy-two Demon Lords has unique skills.
Ma Santong is inherently an enchanted spirit, most adept at possession. Unless guarded by secret techniques, living beings’ bodies are like open doors to him, allowing free entry and exit.
Moreover, this demon has another characteristic.
As it beca a spirit from dead matter, it can refine three types of magic treasures.
First is a fan, which can stir up wind and sand.
Second is a gourd, which can cultivate gu poison.
Third is a gas bag, which can collect plague miasma.
With these few magic treasures combined, Ma Santong becos a walking plague god, and he can also create three avatars of himself.
Records in the Yin Bureau ntion that at locations associated with him, three blood-red children can often be seen, playing with the three magic treasures.
Thus, he is called "Ma Santong".
The technique passed down by him is called "Qi Eating Longevity Technique," which involves devouring plague poison miasma year-round, borrowing it for longevity, much like a poison insect.
At Qingniu Temple, soone is likely cultivating this evil skill...
Understanding this point, Li Yan didn’t waste any more words, addressing the two: "Fine, you both can leave."
This left the two dumbfounded.
The short and sturdy man: "You’re not going to kill us?"
The lean man: "Don’t play tricks on us, sir..."
Li Yan cast a faint glance, "If you don’t leave now, I might change my mind."
Before he finished speaking, the two swiftly exited the scene, disappearing in a flash.
They ran all the way, braving the night rain to leave Fengdu City, knowing rituals were being perford by the river, so they exited behind Fengdu.
"Shall we go to Lu Jiu?"
"No way, leaking information ans the Chuanshu Salt Gang won’t spare us, better take the chance to leave imdiately."
"Indeed, Jinling, Tianjin, aren’t they all bustling places..."
After discussing in the woods, the two promptly left during the night.
After they departed, Li Yan manifested his form, thoughtfully glanced back, then returned to the inn.
"This old man is truly unlucky."
Sha Lifei gloated: "Arguing with us here, yet unaware their base is about to be overturned."
"Now is not the ti for celebration."
Wang Daoxuan stroked his beard and shook his head: "Given the current situation, we truly cannot do without Qingniu Temple’s assistance."
"Only if they catch the Evil Spirit can we avoid suspicion, preventing the Captain Bureau from finding an excuse to act."
"Qingniu Temple is also part of Ei, the orthodox Mystic Sect in Sichuan, with wide connections; exposing this matter can even trouble the Salt Gang, leaving them unable to bother us."
"The Daoist is right."
Li Yan nodded: "Although the old Daoist Chongxu at Qingniu Temple is muddle-headed, the most hateful are still the Salt Gang, constantly causing trouble along the way, they must be dealt with."
"And that purple-faced elder!"
The elderly woman Bai Huan’s eyes also flared with anger, "The one who cast spells to intercept you at Dragon Gate Gorge is nad Yu Mo, his master is that purple-faced elder, nad Wang ngsheng."
"He’s infamous for his insidiousness; he was the one who summoned the rebel army back then, destroying the Taoist temple and releasing the ’Mist Guest.’ When we went up the mountain that day, it was most likely his guidance and betrayal."
"It seems now, they’ve followed us to Sichuan."
Upon hearing this, Li Yan’s intention to kill intensified, and he said in a deep voice: "Everyone prepare, we won’t have peaceful sleep until these vermin are eradicated..."
His words weren’t finished when Lv San stood up suddenly:
"Sothing happened at Qingniu Temple!"
...
Whoosh!
Fierce winds howled, and water waves surged.
At this mont, an eerie scene appeared on the river:
A section of the river was calm, with large sheets of cold ice forming, above which were footprints standing still.
The surrounding water waves whipped up into a massive vortex.
Two invisible forces clashed; the outside appeared imposing but was gradually losing ground.
The area of ice in the center was slowly expanding.
The Wushan Priestess was originally skilled in Dao, compelled to use secret techniques to seal her body, a formidable living dead presence.
Her divine soul was strong, far surpassing those "Water Tigers."
With the evil spirit energy combined, free from bodily constraints, her divine soul power was fully unleashed, becoming a true "demon."
Crack!
On the magic platform, a magic flag suddenly snapped.
An entire contingent of soldiers completely dissipated.
"Vile creature!"
The old Daoist Chongxu was both shocked and enraged.
He hadn’t expected this demon to swallow soldiers, not only destroying his mountain’s foundation but also gradually growing stronger.
"Master, what do we do?"
Beside him, Lingfeng Zi held a ceremonial tablet, his face anxious.
At this mont, Li Yan and Wang Daoxuan, along with others, also erged from the city gate, seeing the scene they shouted: "Old Daoist, don’t panic, we’ll assist you!"
"What are you doing, move aside!"
The Governnt Officials seeing this quickly tried to stop them.
Even ng Changgui breathed a sigh of relief, saying to the Governnt Official next to him: "You fool, can’t you see things are amiss, let the gentlen talk."
Just now, he was almost about to use the Astral Order.
Unlike Li Yan, who ran everywhere and was prone to trouble, they, the living Yin ssengers, rarely had chances to use the Astral Order.
It’s ant for self-preservation, not like Li Yan who summons Yin Bureau soldiers even when encountering a night-attacking bandit.
Purely using a cannon to kill a mosquito.
With Li Yan intervening, he didn’t need to reveal his identity.
But when Chongxu Zi saw Li Yan and the others, his first reaction was anger, "How dare you co out!"
"Hey, you old rascal!"
